Part of the sand processing plant at Park Pit. Park Pit ceased to operate as a sand quarry in 1990 but processing of sand from nearby Tapwood Pit continued until 2014. Plans are being considered for conversion of Park Pit for leisure use. Regardless of the outcome, the processing plant is due to be removed by the last operators of the site, Hanson, during the first part of 2015. There is currently no public access to the site, this photo being taken on a private tour arranged for the Betchworth & Buckland Society.
